Farnborough Samaritans support hospital
Samaritans have been offering extra support for patients at Frimley Park Hospital in Farnborough.
The volunteers are around on Monday evenings to provideemotional support and comfort to anyone who needs it.
The scheme is being piloted for six months at the hospital but may be extended if it is a success.
Similar schemes are running at hospitals across the UK where extra emotional support is needed.
A hospital spokesman said: “The feedback from staff has been excellent. They have been really grateful for the extra support that the Samaritans has been able to provide.
"Although staff are trained to care for the whole patient, not just their physical injury or illness, a long night shift in the Emergency Department can be a real emotional strain.”.
